Didn't you notice the spot yesterday when you bought the car. I would take it back to the seller and see if you can get some money back to paint the hood.

Jessica, if that is the case, then you accepted the car in that condition and have no recourse with the dealer. I would follow the recommendations of Tom, they make sense. Good luck.
